Over to Karthick.

At the time of joining the NUJS diploma in Entrepreneurship Administration and Business Laws, I was heading leadership recruitment at Serco. I always wanted to start up something of my own, even before starting my career and eventually landing up in HR. I wanted to start something of my own.  So in 2015, I decided that the time has come and started up my company Global Talent Hires.

When I started my business, I was looking for a course which would help me in my long-term vision. Something which would empower me with the knowledge about, how to formalize a business in terms of legal aspects. I was searching the internet for a course like this and came across the advertisement of NUJS diploma in Entrepreneurship Administration and business laws. When I came to know that NUJS is providing a platform like this, to learn online. I decided to go for it.

I was very impressed by the course syllabus. I found this course to be blended towards my passion and what I wanted to learn, and this made me go for it. Personally, the most interesting topic for me was formulating a business and FDI. Foreign investments was also an interesting topic and in line with my business interest.

I liked the module on drafting also. However, I don’t use it much in my day to day work. I have a legal team which handles drafting for my organization as it’s a very critical area.

My expectations from this course are more than fulfilled. Before this course, I did not have much idea about how to see an investor, how I should approach an investor, what I should agree and what I should not, etc. This course has given me all necessary insight about these aspects. I have not invited any investor to invest in my startup yet, but I may look out for investors for my future ventures this knowledge would come handy then. As I plan to start two more ventures once my current venture stabilizes.

I have mentioned this diploma in my LinkedIn profile also. I would recommend this diploma course to entrepreneur and anyone wanting to start up a company. It is also beneficial for people who want a career related contract drafting.
